Abstract:
Oxide thermoelectrics are relatively new materials that are workable at temperatures in the range of 400K≤T≤1200K. There are several types of thermoelectric oxide, namely, cobalt oxides (p-type semi-conductors), manganese oxides (n-type) and zinc oxides (n-type semi-conductors) for high temperature energy harvesting. The Seebeck coefficient of 3d metal oxide thermoelectrics is relatively high due to either high density of states at Fermi surfaces or spin entropy flow associated with the carrier flow. The spin entropy part dominates the Seebeck coefficient of 3d-metal oxides at temperatures above 300K. Introduction of impurity particles or quantum-well structures to enhance thermionic emission and energy filtering effects for the oxide semiconductors may lead to a significant improvement of thermoelectric performance.

Abstract:
Energy has emerged as a strategic priority not only in research but also in all aspects of human lives. Most worldwide problems could be solved if energy were plentiful. In order to solve the energy problem, the following methods could be applicable: the creation of electricity from renewable energy resources, increase in conversion efficiency from fossil fuels to electricity, recovery of electricity from exhaust heat energy, and reduction of energy consumption. Nanotechnologies have already shown good promise in addressing and offering solutions in these priority areas. Here, we have demonstrated the application of metal nanoparticles (NPs) to electrocatalysts for the polyelectrolyte fuel cell (increase in conversion efficiency) and to additives to form hybrids with organic thermoelectric materials of conducting polymers (recovery of energy from exhaust heat). Thus, Pt monometallic and AuPt bimetallic NPs were used for electrocatalysts with high performance, and Pt and Au NPs were applied to hybrid thermoelectric materials to fabricate hybrid films with increasing thermoelectric performance for conversion of the exhaust heat near room temperature.

Abstract:
Aiming to reduce thermal energy loss at the cold side of a thermoelectric generator (TEG) module during thermoelectric conversion, a thermoelectric energy conversion system for heat recovery with a water-cooling energy exchange circuit was devised. The water-cooling energy exchange circuit realized sufficient recovery and reuse of heat accumulated at the cold side of the TEG, reduced the danger of heat accumulation, improved the stability and output capacity of thermoelectric conversion, and provided a low-cost and high-yield energy conversion strategy in energy conversion and utilization. Through the control variable method to adjust the heat generation of the heat source in the thermoelectric conversion, critical parameters (e.g., inner resistance of the TEG, temperatures of thermoelectric modules, temperature differences, output current, voltage, power, and efficiency of thermoelectric conversion) were analyzed and discussed. After using the control variable method to change the ratio of load resistance and internal resistance, the impacts of the ratio of load resistance to inner resistance of the TEG on the entire energy conversion process were elaborated. The results showed that the maximum value of output reached 397.47 mV with a current of 105.56 mA, power of 41.96 mW, and energy conversion efficiency of 1.16%. The power density of the TEG module is 26.225 W/m2. The stability and practicality of the system with a water-cooling energy exchange circuit were demonstrated, providing an effective strategy for the recovery and utilization of heat energy loss in the thermoelectric conversion process.

Abstract:
Thesis (M.Sc.Eng.)
Despite of recent success in achieving the figure of merit ZT > 1 based on the nanoscale patterned thermoelectric structures, there have been few stable n-type materials with attractive thermoelectric responses for high temperature applications at T > 800K. In this thesis, we applied the first-principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations to probe the structure and thermoelectric properties relationship of a comprehensive series of perovskite materials. The density of states (DOS), Seebeck coefficient S, electric conductivity σ, and electronic contribution of the thermal conductivity Ke were obtained directly from the first-principles DFT calculations. In particular, Lanthanum (La), Gadolinium (Gd), Samarium (Sm), Yttrium (Y) doped MU+2093SrU+2081U+208BU+2093TiOU+2083 and Niobium (Nb) doped SrNbyTi1-yOU+2083 and doubly doped LaU+2093SrU+2081U+208BU+2093NbyTi1-yOU+2083 systems were studied. The change of the power factor S^2σ corresponding to the different dopant concentration had a good agreement with the experimental data. Our computed power factors S^2σ as a function of the dopant con- centration agree well with the available experimental data, and at the same time provide new insights for the optimal compositions. In the low doping region (x U+003E 12:5%), gadolinium and niobium are the best candidates of perovskite thermoelectric materials while at high doping level (x U+003E 25%), lanthanum and yttrium are the best options. In the case of doubly doped perovskites LaU+2093SrU+2081U+208BU+2093NbyTi1-yOU+2083, our calculations predict that the x= 12.5% and y= 12.5% is the best choice.

Abstract:
In this thesis design, optimization, fabrication and performance characterization of MEMS thermoelectric (TE) energy harvesters for harnessing waste heat in mobile systems are presented. As a proof of concept, chromium and nickel are used as the thermoelectric material in the proposed design. The feasibility of the state of the art thermoelectric materials is also discussed. MEMS TE energy harvesters proposed in this study are designed to generate power at relatively lower &Delta
T values. The performance of the MEMS TE energy harvesters was optimized using analytical and 3-D finite element models. An analytical code was used for profiling the electrical power output with varying geometry. The design points with maximum generated power were selected, and the microfabricated thermoelectric energy harvesters were designed accordingly. The fabricated devices are formed on a silicon wafer and composed of Nickel and Chromium thermocouples on SiO2/Si3N4 diaphragms, and Titanium heater and monitor resistors for testing purposes. Microfabrication was followed by the performance characterization of MEMS TE energy harvesters with the conducted tests. For 10 °
C temperature difference between the hot and cold junctions (a heat source at 35 °
C), the proposed TE energy harvesters are capable of providing 1.1 µ
W/cm2 power density and 1.71 V voltage. The performance of the thermoelectric generators in general is limited by Carnot cycle efficiency. Nevertheless, the validated practical performance of MEMS TE energy harvesters proposed in this thesis is comparable to other examples in literature. It is anticipated by the calculations that this design will be able to provide the highest thermoelectric efficiency factor (4.04 µ
W/K2cm2) among the lateral TE energy harvesters if thermoelectric materials having high Seebeck coefficient values (such as p-Si, n-Si, polysilicon, Bi2Te3 etc.) are used. According to the performance results, the MEMS TE energy harvesters can be implemented in mobile systems to convert waste heat into electricity. The fabrication process can be adapted to CMOS with some modifications if needed. The lateral MEMS thermoelectric energy harvesters can also be combined with vibration energy harvesters to realize multi-mode energy scavenging. For prospective study, vertical thermoelectric generator configurations are also discussed in order to further increase the power density generated. The finite element simulations for proposed vertical configurations with air and water convection were completed. The vertical TE generators proposed can supply up to 4.2 mW/cm2 with a heat source at a temperature of 310 K.

Thermoelectric materials are capable of solid-state direct heat to electricity energy conversion and are ideal for waste heat recovery applications due to their simplicity, reliability, and lack of environmentally harmful working fluids. Recently, nanostructured thermoelectrics have demonstrated remarkably enhanced energy conversion efficiencies, primarily due to a reduction in lattice thermal conductivity. Despite these advances, much remains unknown about heat transport in these materials, and further efficiency improvements will require a detailed understanding of how the heat carriers, electrons and phonons, are affected by nanostructures. To elucidate these processes, in this thesis we investigate nanoscale transport using both modeling and experiment. The first portion of the thesis studies how electrons and phonons are affected by grain boundaries in nanocomposite thermoelectric materials, where the grain sizes are smaller than mean free paths (MFPs). We use the Boltzmann transport equation (BTE) and a new grain boundary scattering model to understand how thermoelectric properties are affected in nanocomposites, as well as to identify strategies which could lead to more efficient materials. The second portion of the thesis focuses on determining how to more directly measure heat carrier properties like frequency-dependent MFPs. Knowledge of phonon MFPs is crucial to understanding and engineering nanoscale transport, yet MFPs are largely unknown even for bulk materials and few experimental techniques exist to measure them. We show that performing macroscopic measurements cannot reveal the MFPs; instead, we must study transport at the scales of the MFPs, in the quasi- ballistic transport regime. To investigate transport at these small length scales, we first numerically solve the frequency-dependent phonon BTE, which is valid even in the absence of local thermal equilibrium, unlike heat diffusion theory. Next, we introduce a novel thermal conductivity spectroscopy technique which can measure MFP distributions over a wide range of length scales and materials using observations of quasi-ballistic heat transfer in a pump-probe experiment. By observing the changes in thermal resistance as a heated area size is systematically varied, the thermal conductivity contributions from different MFP phonons can be determined. We present the first experimental measurements of the MFP distribution in silicon at cryogenic temperatures. Finally, we develop a modification of this technique which permits us to study transport at scales much smaller than the diffraction limit of approximately one micron. It is important to access these length scales as many technologically relevant materials like thermoelectrics have MFPs in the deep submicron regime. To beat the diffraction limit, we use electron-beam lithography to pattern metallic nano dot arrays with diameters in the hundreds of nanometers range. Because the effective length scale for heat transfer is the dot diameter rather than the optical beam diameter, we are able to study nanoscale heat transfer while still achieving ultrafast time resolution. We demonstrate the modified technique by measuring the MFP distribution in sapphire. Considering the crucial importance of the knowledge of MFPs to understanding and engineering nanoscale transport, we expect these newly developed techniques to be useful for a variety of energy applications, particularly for thermoelectrics, as well as for gaining a fundamental understanding of nanoscale heat transport.

Abstract:
Materials at the nanoscale show properties uniquely different from the bulk scale which when controlled can be utilized for variety of thermal management applications. Different applications require reduction, increase or directional control of thermal conductivity. This thesis focuses on investigating thermal transport in two such application areas, viz., 1) thermoelectric energy conversion and 2) thermal rectification. Using molecular dynamics simulations, several methods for reducing of thermal conductivity in polyaniline and polyacetylene are investigated. The reduction in thermal conductivity leads to improvement in thermoelectric figure of merit. Thermal diodes allow heat transfer in one direction and prevents in the opposite direction. These materials have potential application in phononics, i.e., for performing logic calculations with phonons. Rectification obtained with existing material systems is either too small or too difficult to implement. In this thesis, a more useful scheme is presented that provides higher rectification using a single wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) that is covalently functionalized near one end with polyacetylene (PA). Although several thermal diodes are discussed in literature, more complex phononic devices like thermal logic gates and thermal transistors have been sparingly investigated. This thesis presents a first design of a thermal AND gate using asymmetric graphene nanoribbon (GNR) and characterizes its performance.

Abstract:
Much analysis has been performed on the application of thermoelectrics in automobiles, but the low efficiency of the materials has so far limited their use. As a result, little has been done in the physical design of how to most efficiently utilize thermoelectrics in a vehicle's energy system. However, much progress has been and continues to be made in the field of thermoelectric materials. Developments in the areas of nanostructured materials have produced materials with double the efficiency of current commercially available materials. This, coupled with a growing need for the reduced consumption of fossil fuels and production of greenhouse gases, has generated renewed interest in the application of thermoelectrics in automotive systems. Hybrid-electric vehicle (HEV) designs have provided significant improvements in fuel efficiency and continue to evolve. This modified energy management strategy introduces new components and energy distributions which force traditional designs to be reconsidered. For example, the temperature and quantity of thermal energy transferred through the exhaust and radiator are lowered. Also, the IC engine may not be run continuously, creating difficulties in maintaining temperature in the catalytic converter, powering belt-driven accessories, and regulating cabin temperature. This contributes to an increased demand for electrical energy. Finally, the power electronics are typically liquid cooled (order of 60-65 °C) and the high voltage battery packs must be kept cool (typically below 45 °C) to maximize their life. A detailed computer model which captures the details of the energy transfers in HEV's, including thermal loads will be used to assess the unique thermal requirements of hybrid vehicles under average engine loads. Based on these requirements, specific thermal energy management strategies will be proposed. These modified systems will be added to the computer model in order to evaluate their potential using currently available thermoelectrics materials. Finally, the preferred thermal energy management system will be selected as the basis for future design optimization.
